    The spreadsheet is used to calculate the surface area and weight of steel for parking garage structures based on typical beam, girder and column sizes. It provides estimates that can be used for painting or fireproofing requirements.

    The spreadsheet allows the user to input typical bay dimensions and member sizes to calculate the total surface area and weight of steel for the entire parking structure.

    The surface area and weight for each type of member (beams, girders, columns) is calculated based on the member's cross-sectional properties and number of each member. These are then summed to provide totals for the structure.

    Instructions
    Switch to Input Sheet and Input the required information in the
    boxes with the blue text, including:
    1) Project Name
    2) Project Description
    3) Company
    4) User
    5) Bay Width (Girder Length)
    6) # of Bays - along the Building Width
    7) Bay Length ( Beam Length)
    8) # of Bays - along the Building Length
    9) Number of Floors
    10) Choose whether or not to paint the top flange of the beams. The top flange may be left unpainted in
    order to install studs or if the paint is field applied.
    11) Interior Beam Size
    12) Number of Interior Beam Lines *fractions are acceptable
    13) Exterior Beam Size
    14) Number of Exterior Beam Lines *fractions are acceptable
    15) Choose whether or not to paint the top flange of the girders The top flange may be left unpainted in
    order to install studs or if the paint is field applied.
    16) Interior Girder Size
    17) Number of Interior Girder Lines *fractions are acceptable
    18) Exterior Girder Size
    19) Number of Exterior Girder Lines *fractions are acceptable
    20) Interior Column Sizes and Floor Heights for up to 10 Levels
    21) Exterior Column Sizes for up to 10 Levels
    For Parking Garages:
    22) Choose whether or not to include parking on the lowest level, usually slab-on-grade. When checked
    this option will add another floor to the area of the structure for parking calculations.
    23) Floor area per Parking Space or Total Number of Parking Spaces
